NBA Thread...for hip hop fans, they go hand-in-hand especially if you from NY area

Wow. I'm surprised we won....

Starbury really sparked that comeback...

That was EXACTLY what we needed... some spark off the bench. We were losing that entire game until like 5 minutes was left and we started scoring.... Ray Allen hit that HUGEEE three, after missing absolutely every shot he took, he drained a major shot that put us up... Thats what the celtics do though, put themselves in holes and then find ways to win later in the game. haha

im surprised the celtics are up...

[Truth]

Celtics are done......

in a way i'm happy....lets be honest. we wern't beating cleveland this year anyway. Ecspecially without KG, even if KG cameback, he'd be rusty from not playing......

its all good. we had a **** load of injuries and almost made it to the conference finals.

we came close to winning the series in game 6, and we blew it. The Magic deserve to win, they are the better team right now.

celtics really need a small forward to back up pierce...

james posey/shane battier/bruce bowen type of player

I've been saying it for a while, everyone says they need a center or a backup point guard but even with a healthy team, i dont think they would have beat cleveland this year.

Last year, there wasnt as much of a gap between lebron and pierce as there is this year...maybe pierce is hurt, but i think hes also losing his first step. Lebron really stepped up his defense this year.

So my question is besides pierce, who else would the celtics have to guard lebron? Ray allen? Tony allen? big baby? Powe?

nahhh, hence my point...they need a small forward to backup pierce. Someone who can play some defense and knock down an open 3 pointer

[Truth]

they need posey..lol^

i think they would have gotten by orlando with a healthy team. and maybe if they got home court too, they could have had some sort of a shot. But it wasn't their year, KG got injured, didn't get home court. It was not meant to be this year.

The Yankees won 5 in a row...so I'm happy about that though.

i give the celtics alotta credit, they fought hard in the 1st round against chicago and they fought hard against orlando. I thought coming into the series, that the magic were a step up from chicago and the celtics, and that they might win the series but I also knew the celtics had more heart. I wouldnt be ashamed at all if i was a celtics player or fan. They went down fighting with the exception of the 4th quarter tonight. The Cavs will **** the Magic. Cleveland in 5.

I'm excited for a kobe vs. lebron finals....its gonna be good tv.

[Truth]

who is going to win...Lakers vs. Cavs?

[Truth]

I can't believe how well the magic are doing against cleveland.

they had a tough time with a KGless Boston, who would think they would do well against Cleveland?

I thought the Cavs would win in 5.

[Truth]

if the magic win this game...wow...wow 3-1?
